The WAK24264IN model washing machine is more or less a replacement to Bosch’s older model WAK24168IN which had highly positive reviews from users. The good news is that the features and functions remain more or less the same.
With7 kg capacity and max. RPM of 1200, WAK24264IN has advanced features specifically designed keeping Indian customers in mind. It is available at a cost of INR 27499 from Amazon.
The major positive is that it has a variety of wash programs, flexibility in controlling temperature setting of each wash program and features like re-load function, anti-vibration design and monsoon program.
The areas where WAK24264IN lacks is mainly that the temperature can be set from cold to up to 60 degree Celsius, which is fairly good. But in LG and IFB, temperature can be cranked up to 95 degree Celsius for cotton and baby care segment.
Also, the inlet pipe that comes with the machine is just 1 metre long. So, if at your home, the tap is not really close to the washing machine, you may have to spend extra for a longer inlet pipe. There are few complaints about delays in installation as well as rude behaviour of technicians as well. So, be prepared!
Now, let us get on to the features of the washing machine that really makes it a Wow! Machine.
Bosch WAK2624 has a number of wash programs making it suitable for every need. In addition to regular programs like Wool, Silk, Daily Wash and Synthetics, it has kids wear and super clean programs for cleaning heavily soiled clothes without damaging the fabrics and Super 15/30 for quick wash within 15 and 30 minutes respectively. The Allergy Plus setting helps to keep the fabrics completely free off detergent residues. Thanks to these features, Bosch Washing Machines are certified by European Centre For Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF)
If you live in an area with heavy monsoon, you will find the Monsoon program especially useful. With this setting, you can remove the odour of damp clothes and reduce drying period by up to 10%.
